Perfecto says he always played for fun, Cybersport.ru reports

Ilya “Perfecto” Zalutsky looked back on his Counter-Strike 2 career, saying he has always played professionally for enjoyment, Cybersport.ru reported on Oct. 31. The comments were published in Russian.

What Perfecto said

According to Cybersport.ru, Perfecto said that not everyone wins as much or reaches such success, and called his path crazy. He is still grateful for everything that happened, he said.

However hard it was, he said, trying was better than not trying, even considering where he played after Natus Vincere and Cloud9. Perfecto asked himself whether he regrets it and answered possibly, but said he would have regretted it even more if he had not tried.

It always seems better to hold on to opportunities, he added. Perfecto also said he always did everything for some purpose, and that it was definitely not money.

Where his career stands

Cybersport.ru wrote that Perfecto had said earlier that he has not yet ended his playing career. For now, he has chosen to prioritize streaming, the outlet reported.
